Northwest Arizona and Southeast Nevada Hotels

Mid-priced chain accommodations abound in Kingman and Lake Havasu, and to a lesser extent Bullhead City—though the casino resorts across the river in Laughlin are among the best values in the region. You'll also find a few historic hotels to break up the modern mix. Lake Havasu City has a few somewhat upscale resorts, as does Laughlin, with its several glittery but reasonably priced gaming properties. Staying in a houseboat on Lake Havasu or Lake Mead puts a decidedly different twist on water recreation. These floating rooms with a view can be maneuvered into countless coves and inlets, allowing for peaceful solitude rarely found on the busy beaches and popular waterways.
